A multi-core processor
is an integrated circuit (IC) to which two or more processors have been attached for enhanced performance, reduced power consumption, and more efficient simultaneous processing of multiple tasks (see parallel processing).
Is an integrated circuit which contains two or more processors?
A multicore processor
is an integrated circuit that contains two or more processors. This technology enables two or more processing engines with reduced power requirements and heat dissipation to perform tasks faster than a resource-hungry chip with a single processing core.
Which of the following refers to the ability of a system to serve large amounts of users without breaking down?
Scalability
refers to the ability of a computer, product, or system to expand to serve a large number of users without breaking down.
Which of the following involves practices and technologies to minimize the environmental effects of manufacturing and managing computing devices select one?
Which of the following involves practices and technologies to minimize the environmental effects of manufacturing and managing computing devices?
quantum computing
.
What is unique about a multi core processor?
Multicore processing
can increase performance by running multiple applications concurrently
. The decreased distance between cores on an integrated chip
Which of the following is example of a legacy system?
Surprisingly enough, legacy systems can be found across many organizations. Examples include
hardware in power plants
, manufacturing machines controlled by computers running MS-DOS, or outdated financial systems.
What is the foundation technology for Web services?
What is the foundation technology for web services?

What is the fastest growing form of computing?
Serverless computing
is already the highest growth public cloud service, growing from 12% adoption in early 2017 to 21% adoption in early 2018, according to a survey conducted by cloud management company RightScale.
Which of the following is a device that acts as a connection point?
Most networks also contain
a switch or a hub
acting as a connection point between the computers. Hubs are very simple devices that connect network components, sending a packet of data to all other connected devices. A switch has more intelligence than a hub and can filter and forward data to a specified destination.
Is a page description language for specifying how text graphics video and sound are placed on a Web page?
Hypertext markup language
specifies how text, graphics, video, and sound are placed on a Web page document.
What is a multi-core processor give an example?
For example, if you are doing multiple tasks at a same time like as using WhatsApp and Watching movie then
one core handle WhatsApp activities
and other core manage to another works such as watching movie.
What is a multi-core processor example?
Comprised of non-identical processor cores that support different instruction set architecture (ISAs). For example:
Intel CE 2110 Media
that consists of an Intel Xscale processor core and an Intel Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) DSP core. Each processor usually has own specialty.
What is legacy system components?
Legacy systems are socio-technical computer-based systems (discussed in Chapter 2) so they include
software, hardware, data and business processes
. Changes to one part of the system inevitably involve further changes to other components.
What are examples of a system?
Some examples include transport systems;
solar systems
; telephone systems; the Dewey Decimal System; weapons systems; ecological systems; space systems; etc. Indeed, it seems there is almost no end to the use of the word “system” in today’s society.
